AVR DA 8-Bit Microcontrollers Microchip Technology AVR DA 8-Bit Microcontrollers bring real-time control functionality and easy capacitive touch to the low-power performance of AVR® microcontrollers (MCUs). The AVR DA MCUs pair the Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs) with a robust Intelligent Analog portfolio to create a device that not only excels as a stand-alone processor but also as a companion MCU in designs that demand precision. The high memory density of the AVR DA family makes these MCUs well suited for both wired and wireless communication stack intensive functions.
